Significant events
- “Other geopolitical events such as the war in Ukraine have impacted the inflationary environment in the UK, which in turn has driven a downturn in the UK economic outlook.”
- “The change in US politics and the trade tariffs instigated by the new regime could increase the costs of importing raw materials from the US should the UK government impose retaliatory tariffs on imports.”
- “Inflation has been significant in 2024 and deflation on some materials is expected in 2025; the majority of raw material inflation has been recovered to date.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
